Hello!
I have a homemade C&C cage with a closed top as we have other animals, the dogs are very sweet to them and are in a different room anyway when we go to work due to the youngest chewing on everything and scratching walls but the cat likes to lay in their hay and we've seen her hiss and paw them when they tried to keep eating it . But she doesn't jump in unless the top is wide open. And also when friends come with their kids I'm very happy that I can close and LOCK it! We also close it when friends with dogs visit. So the top grids are connected with each other, with the exception of 3 grids in the front which are tied together and to the back with plastic ties, so we can flip it back.
So my problem is: how can I add a patio while keeping a system that'll allow me to close my cage in a second if needed?
I would like to avoid these patios where you only have like 10cms left under of it, as I'm planning to add a litter tray very soon and then I wouldn't even have room for their hideys and store, which they love! At the beginning I just wanted to add grids on the left or right, and add a third grid to make room for the ramp access (I tried to draw a pic on word but I'm not sure it makes it clearer ). But then I wouldn't be able to flip the "door" back, it would always hang in the air and we would need to tie and untie it everytime
Has anyone figured out a good system for adding a 1rst floor to a closed top cage?
Thanks
